First photoshoot!

Post by ciaraalston » Sun Jul 15, 2018 8:35 am

Hey y'all! So, the two adoptions are doing great!!! They are getting along so well with big brother Rajah, and hopefully Sebastian will be up from his molt soon and they can meet him.
I don't know their genders yet, in fact i don't know ANY of my crabs genders. I was looking for the holes on the TOP of their abdomen and I just reread the post and looked at the pictures and they're on the bottom.... I'm not going to force them out far enough to see, so I'll just hope they don't mind their names and pronouns. ImageImage

Anyways, everyone meet Kenai Image

Image

The two newbies are much smaller than my first two, so I'm in awe of these baby pinchers ImageImageImage
Image

Her brother will eventually get his pictures taken, but he's currently hold up in The mason jar hide with Rajah hoarding walnuts. ImageImage

Also, these three are some big eaters!! I've always complained how everyone else's crabs eat and mine don't touch the food. Well now I'm refilling dishes and grabbing pics of them dragging off food. ImageImage

Rajah is the white and brown shell on the right, Kaa is the small shell on the left. Apparently Rajah also wanted to hoard a spare shell for himself. Image

hahaha, yeah i usually am too. But i give all my animals Disney names. [Sebastian, hermit crab- the crab from Little Mermaid. Rajah, hermit crab- the tiger from Alladin. Maui, beta fish- from Moana. Fidgit, dalmation molly- from 101 dalmations. and of course Kenai from Brother Bear and Kaa from Jungle book. :D :D ]



Thanks GBl! I can't wait to get some pics of Kaa. He really likes Rajah,he stays right by his side!

One of my crabs has a Disney name too. Her name is Violet, named after Violet Parr from the Incredibles. The other one is a Harry Potter themed name, Buckbeak.
